  • Opeth - The Lotus Eater - drum cover
    So happy to finally playing this song. I was always quite intimidated by this one because it's long and difficult. There were so many things to learn but I enjoyed every second of it. I'm very happy with the result despite my terrible hair on this video. :') I'll keep them tied up from now on.
    I almost covered the entire album Watershed and I'm asking myself if I should do the whole thing. I think I will cover all the remaining tracks. This album is a huge inspiration for me.
    Hope you'll like this video. I still need to fix a couple of things in the mixing process but I'm pretty happy right now ! Learning a lot these days !

    You’re covers always sound absolutely spot on to the original, fills and everything, it’s incredible. I’ve been trying to learn this as a challenge and to practice blasting in a song a bit more. Great cover!

      @@dylanwhitesockswatson My pleasure! Not only is your playing phenomenal on a technical and musical level, but I really dig the positive energy that you show with each of these crazy covers! Have you considered something from the olde days - maybe perhaps "Karma", "When", "Demon of the Fall", "Serenity Painted Death", etc etc? That would be cool! Rock on brother...

    Holy crap.
    You do master Opeth Watershed drumming! I'm impressed.
    Would you mind... I'm lacking some execution speed for sure. But around 7:20, what is the sticking pattern to have that constant roll sound merged with right hand accents with bass + cymbal ? I'm struggling :)
    Impressive I'm a fan now!

      Thank you for the nice trick. Been working on it and I understand why mine were sounding like crap and was trying to fill that in with doubles... wrong idea :)
      Hope you'll perform in Canada some day. Please let me know I would love to see you play live, no matter the band :)
      PS: I never get bored looking at you play. In fact, it's a great help when practicing Opeth. Damn it's hard!
